Tips for Breast Cancer Survivors:How to Add Organic Vegetables to Your Diet

If you're thinking about improving your diet, you might be curious about organic vegetables. Here are some gentle, evidence-based tips to help breast cancer survivors incorporate organic produce with confidence.

🥬 1. Start Small and Simple

You don’t need to switch everything at once. Begin with vegetables you eat often or those you consume with the skin on—like leafy greens, carrots, or tomatoes.

📍 2. Look for Trusted Labels

In Japan, the “Organic JAS” label indicates that a product meets national organic standards^[MAFF]. Checking for this label can help you choose with peace of mind.

🛒 3. Try Local Markets or Delivery Services

Farmers’ markets and organic delivery services are great ways to access fresh, trustworthy produce. Supporting local growers can also help you feel more connected to your community.

💡 4. Focus on Balance

Whether organic or not, eating a variety of vegetables is key to a healthy diet. Choose what works best for your body and lifestyle, and take it one step at a time.
